The first words that Bryan McMillan's best friend said to him when McMillan visited him in the hospital in March 2010 were, "How are you doing?" What would otherwise be an ordinary question shocked McMillan. His friend of 32 years, who was just diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and lying in a hospital bed adjacent to a healthy McMillan, was more interested in the other's well-being than his own. "That was one of those pivotal moments you don't forget," McMillan, 48, of Columbia, said.

From The Aegis dated April 30, 1987: A Harford woman was sentenced 25 years ago to five years in prison, which equated to "one year for each bullet she fired into her husband's body. " The woman never denied shooting her unemployed husband, but said she did it because she feared the man she had lived with for 19 years and feared for her children. Not only did her husband abuse his step-daughter, he also fought with his two sons with the woman. She pleaded guilty to manslaughter.

When Vinny Ragone heard the Dog Whisperer was going to be at a Baltimore pet store, and he could see him for free, he told his mother (who had never heard of Cesar Millan), "I've got to be there. " The eight-year-old Towson boy with wire-rimmed glasses nearly cried when, after waiting in line for hours, he finally saw in person the guy he's seen so many times on TV — the guy he hopes can get his puppy Molly to stop biting. "I think [Millan] impresses him a lot," said Vinny's mother, Mona Ragone.

Cesar Millan, better known as The Dog Whisperer will be bringing his live show to Baltimore Saturday night. Tickets for that show at The Lyric aren't cheap. But folks can see Mr. Whisperer for free -- and probably get a chance to chat him up on a personal basis earlier in the day. Millan will be at Pet Valu in South Baltimore, 871 East Fort Ave., for two hours -- from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. He'll meet customers and sign autographs. Heck, it's a pet store -- you probably could introduce him to your dog. Maybe he'd whisper some sweet nothings in his or her furry ear. Just don't let him give the pup one of his famous "tsssks.

"If you repeat a fallacy often enough, it becomes accepted as fact. " This time-tested tactic is being fully utilized in the drive to raise Maryland's gas tax. Gas tax proponents claim, "We don't collect enough revenue to maintain our roads"; "investing more in public transportation will reduce traffic"; and "a constitutional amendment will protect funds generated by higher gas taxes. " They even claim raising the gas tax would boost the economy and create "shovel ready jobs. " The facts tell a different story.

Robert McMillan, a five-year employee with the Harford County Department of Public Works, Division of Water and Sewer, has been named Employee of the Month for July. He was nominated by his crew chief from the Division of Water and Sewer, Tim Smith. McMillan recently went above and beyond what was called for to return money and paperwork left behind by a customer of the 7-Eleven where he and Smith had stopped for lunch. The crew chief pointed out paperwork on the counter thinking it belonged to McMillan, not wanting him to forget it. When they returned to their vehicle, McMillan noticed it was not his paperwork or money.

Jimmy McMillan, who became somewhat famous as a candidate running for New York City mayor on a platform of "The Rent Is Too Damn High," is now running for president on a new platform: "Gasonline Is Too Damn High. " McMillan sat down with New York-based comedian Jena Friedman (who posted the interview recently to YouTube) for what has to be one of the strangest conversations I've ever seen. In it, McMillan runs through a series of topics including his criticism of men who "throw babies down the toilet," the dating section of his website, why pregnant women look like "wolfman" and, somewhat touchingly, true love. "If you say you love, you love," McMillan says.

All season, the John Carroll boys basketball team has made the most of its extensive resources, having balance on offense and playing smart, tireless team defense. When necessary, the No. 2 Patriots always know they can lean on their talented senior backcourt of Malcolm McMillan and Ronald Scott. Nothing changed in Tuesday night's 40th annual Baltimore Catholic League championship game against No. 5 St. Frances. Taking charge early and maintaining a safe distance throughout, the Patriots were simply a little better in every phase against the Panthers, pulling away in the fourth quarter to earn a 57-45 win at Loyola University's Reitz Arena that sealed instant success in the program's first season in the BCL. Scott scored a game-high 19 points, and McMillan added 12 as the Patriots (32-2)
